Chapter XXI: Appendix: Various Household Hints
“=A most attractive general cookery-book.=”—_Examiner._
_Tenth edition, small crown 8vo., 392 pp., cloth, price 3s. 6d._
=Dainty Dishes. Receipts collected by= LADY HARRIET ST. CLAIR (late
Countess Münster).
“In spite of the number of cookery-books in existence, Lady Harriet St. Clair’s volume is well worth buying, especially by that class of persons who, though their incomes are small, enjoy out-of-the way and _recherché_ delicacies.”—_Times._
“It is true to its title, but shows that ‘dishes’ may be ‘dainty’ without being costly or elaborate, with nothing but wholesome ingredients to begin with, and delicate management in the cooking.”—_Examiner._
“It is a capital cookery-book. All the recipes are clear and well conveyed, and they will enable anyone who chooses to follow them to produce capital cookery.”—_Scotsman._
“The contents of the volume are varied, much attention being bestowed on Scotch dishes, and it is something to say in this age of many cookery-books, that the recipes given are not fanciful, but practical. They can really be cooked, a recommendation that cannot be given to many of our cookery-books.”—_Glasgow Herald._
“A design so excellent, and an accomplishment so complete, may well recommend this volume to the consideration of the ladies of this kingdom. If economy can be combined with an agreeable and nutritious diet, by all means let the fact be well known.”—_British Mail._
“Those house-wives who wish to improve in the now fashionable art of cookery, will find a storehouse of plain, practical teaching in this book.”—_Literary Churchman._
“The late Countess Münster has not only laid English and French kitchens under contribution, but takes us to Italy, Germany, Russia, and even to Poland, in search of any dish that may be toothsome, wholesome, and made easily and cheaply.”—_Bookseller._
“A book of gastronomic delicacies enough to make the mouth water.”—_Surrey Comet._
“Here is a cookery-book unique in character, and well worth studying.”—_Educational Times._
_Second and Cheap Edition, with Twelve Portraits._
